I usually shrug with an olympic bar in the squat rack. I saw a guy the
other day doing the same thing but picking up the bar behind his back and shrugging it up behind his ass. What is the point of that? |

When I do barbell shrugs I have to lean a bit so I don't bruise up my precious willy. Is this bad for the back at all? Jake posting just to use the word "willy" |

It seems like that would work the muscles in a slightly different way. Do
whatever is more comfortable for you or do both. You could also do shrugs with dumbells. -BionicMan113 Subject: Shrug Question From: (Bruce) Date: 2/12/2004 8:11 PM Pacific Standard Time Message-id: I usually shrug with an olympic bar in the squat rack.
